When it’s hot outside, it’s hard to want to do much, even on Too Cute Tuesday.
In Maine, temperatures hit 95ish degrees. I know this isn’t hot for you people in warm climates but let’s just say that we chose to live half way between the Equator and North Pole because we like cooler temperatures. Also, some of us don’t have things like air conditioners. All in all, the heat is making people lazy and a little cranky.
Since many of us are pet owners, Dorrie found a fun craft where we could recycle our old pet food bags and make ourselves something useful. And, with four steps involved, we were sold on an easy craft that wouldn’t have us sweating too much. Plus Dorrie is the Birthday Girl and as the rule goes, you really ought to listen to the Birthday Girl.

Right before we were scheduled to head to Craft Central, Sadie decided to break out of the apartment while I was in the shower. I realized my mistake after a few quiet moments.
I put on clothes and walked the street with dog treats in my pocket and dripping hair, showing strangers Sadie’s picture. No one had seen her. I returned home after ten minutes and decided to call the police department.
“White and tan dog?”
“Yup.”
“Burn on her tail?”
“Yup.”
“Well one of the officers tried to pick her up…”
Oh crap. Sadie hates to be picked up. So, Sadie bit a police officer. Fan- freakin-tastic.

What a special Tuesday it is! Barack Obama is now president and I raise my TCT cocktail to his successful presidency. I'm so glad I took an early lunch to watch the whole thing live. Tonight is a craft involves both 1) less work then it looks and 2)...

My friend D mentioned a T-shirt Tote would be a good blog topic and a quick Google search helped me stumble upon this fantastic one: There are variations of course (like keeping the sleeve for interrior pockets) but who doesn't have an old t-shirt or...
